IMO, It depends on whether you have enough savings or not (6+ months seems a minimum, I had more like 2 years) and whether you have a solid network already, and a few other parameters (your risk aversion for example).
Working a day job + having another salary worth of client work before you can leave seems like a recipe for burnout to me - but again, everyone's different.
